US Navy Chief's organs donated after dispute allegedly led to his death

A community is mourning after police said a U.S. Navy chief petty officer got into a fight, then was fatally injured in what is believed to be an intentional crash.

Friday, Tyler Murphy’s organs were donated while friends and family gathered at Sentara Norfolk General Hospital.

“The biggest thing about Tyler was his personality and smile,” said Stephen Murphy about his son.

Stephen said he and his son were best friends and would talk every day on the phone before work.

He told News 3 his son had a passion for people, his community and the nation he wanted to serve and protect.
